Chapter 141: The Fourth School Begins

The train to Hogwarts started, and Zhang Xu found a car with no one and sat down.

Once on the train, Harry Potter doesn't have to worry about his safety.

Just as Zhang Xu took out a book and was about to pass the time, the carriage door was opened.

Seeing that it was Neville who opened the door, Zhang Xu said to the toad on the table, "Laifu, did you drop this Neville?" ”

……

The journey was uneventful, and the train arrived at Hogsmeade Station just as it was getting dark.

At this time, it was pouring rain, and the students were struggling to walk through the torrential rain.

Zhang Xu looked at the new students who followed Hagrid to receive Hogwarts history education in person, just like he watched the younger students who were training under the scorching sun in the university in his previous life.

Zhang Xu looked at the students who were struggling to walk to the carriage in the torrential rain, and he couldn't figure out why they didn't use magic to avoid the rain like he did, so they had to drench themselves in soup.

Pulling up Luna, who had fallen on the rain-soaked ground because of a slip under her feet, Zhang Xu helped her into the carriage.

Sitting in the carriage, a drenched Luna sneezed.

Hogsmeade, which is located at high altitudes, is not warm in September.

"Sit still and don't move." Zhang Xu took out his wand and said to Luna.

A hot wind erupted from Zhang Xu's wand, swirling around Luna like a tornado.

Under Zhang Xu's precise control, the warm air flow penetrated through Luna's cuffs, collar and other places, and a moment later, a white vapor emerged from Luna's body.

Luna, who had been dried, blushed all over, and if she sat quietly, she would still be a very eye-catching girl.

But getting Luna to sit quietly was on the same level of difficulty as having Snape wash her hair every day.

There were only two people in the carriage, Zhang Xu and Luna, and after Luna thanked Zhang Xu, she asked him all kinds of questions about magical beasts.

In the past two years, Zhang Xu has been asked by Luna all kinds of questions about trembling maggots, harassing flies and the like.

Unbearable, Zhang Xu had no choice but to distract her with other magical animals of the East that Luna had never heard of.

As a result, as soon as Luna touched Zhang Xu, she pestered him and kept asking him.

"The body of the sheep is the same as that of a sheep, but its tail is the same as that of a horse. The oil on its body has the effect of moisturizing the skin, which is found in the kind of skin care products that you girls often use. ”

"The fish is a fish with one head and ten bodies at the same time, and its flesh can cure suppuration on the body when eaten."

Just as Zhang Xu was telling, the carriage arrived.

After Zhang Xu cast a water avoidance spell on himself and Luna, they walked into the castle together.

Walking into the foyer, Zhang Xu found that he and Luna were the only two of the students who did it, and the others had become soup chickens, the difference was only that there was more soup and less soup.

When the students near the gate saw Zhang Xu and Luna, they remembered to use magic to dry themselves.

This year's opening banquet was as lively as in previous years, and the difference from previous years was that this year's freshmen were all wet, as if they had been fished out of water.

Looking at the freshmen who were shivering from the cold and nervousness, Zhang Xu took out his wand and aimed it at them after asking Dumbledore's permission with his eyes.

As soon as the freshmen stood in line and waited for the sorting ceremony to begin, they felt a warm wind blowing from the side.

As the hot wind continued to whizz around the new students, the students, who were shivering from the cold and nervousness, were shocked by the sudden warmth.

In less than a minute, a cloud of water vapor came out of the black robes of the freshmen, making the freshmen standing together look like black rice steamed buns in a steamer that had just lifted the lid.

Amid the exclamations of the freshmen, they could feel their wet clothes drizen.

Zhang Xu, who had been a large hair dryer, put away his wand amid the applause of the students, and nodded with a smile at the freshmen who were looking at him.

The sorting ceremony continued.

After the singing of the Sorting Hat, this year's Sorting Ceremony came to its best part.

As Professor McGonagall took the roll call, the freshmen lined up to put on the Sorting Hats, and then proceeded to the long tables in the different houses as arranged by the Sorting Hats.

The freshmen were very excited, and Zhang Xu could hear the shouts of Dennis Creevey, a freshman on the other side of the Lion Courtyard, on the table in the Eagle Courtyard.

"Colin, I fell into the lake!" Dennis Creevey said to his brother, "That's wonderful! Something in the water grabbed me and pushed me back into the boat! ”

Zhang Xu knew what he was talking about in the lake, it was a huge squid.

Zhang Xu once had the idea of beating the big squid, but was stopped by Dumbledore on the spot.

The sorting ceremony was over, and it was time for the students to let go of their bellies and eat.

Needless to say, the delicacies on the long table made the students enjoy their meals.

Today's dinner came to an end when desserts such as syrup pies, raisin pudding, chocolate cake, scones, Victorian sponge cake, almond jam tart, apple pie, cranberry soufflé, lightning puffs and more disappeared from the long table.

This was followed by a speech by the Headmaster, Professor Dumbledore, who, after routinely informing the students of a series of do's and don'ts, brought shocking news to the students.

"I'd also like to regret to inform you that there will be no House Cup Quidditch this year."

"What?!" Harry Potter exclaimed.

His voice was so loud that even Dumbledore was startled.

Dumbledore gestured to everyone to calm down, and then continued, "This is because a big event will start in October and continue throughout the school year, taking up a lot of the teachers' time and energy. But I'm sure you can all have a lot of fun with it. It is my great pleasure to announce that this year's ...... at Hogwarts

Before Dumbledore could finish speaking, there was a loud bang in the sky, and Moody appeared in the sky.

Moody, who looked like a child crying at night, walked towards Dumbledore with the lightning and thunder outside the castle.

Dumbledore shook hands with Moody and muttered a few more words, and then Moody sat down in the professor's chair and began his dinner.

"Allow me to introduce our new Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher," Dumbledore happily broke the silence, "Professor Moody. ”

A moment of silence ensued, and only Dumbledore and Hagrid applauded a few times.

The cold reaction of the whole school did not seem to affect Moody, and he sat in his seat and ate his dinner.

When Moody reached into his travel cloak, pulled out a curved wine bottle, and took a big sip, Zhang Xu, who was sitting in the audience, smiled playfully.

Then Dumbledore again brought shocking news to the students.

"In the coming months, we will be honored to host a wonderful event that has not been held for more than a century. I'm pleased to report that Triwizard Tournament will be held at Hogwarts this year. ”

The students in the cafeteria were shocked at the moment, and the reaction of the students was even more fierce than the announcement that Quidditch matches would be closed this year.

After Dumbledore had explained to the students what the Triwizard Tournament was, announced that the other two schools would be coming to Hogwarts in October, and informed the students of the age limit for this year's tournament, the banquet ended this morning.
